About

Hello! If you are reading this you have stepped out of your comfort zone and are exploring who you can trust with your innermost thoughts and feelings. I would be honored to support you along your process of healing from traumatic/adverse childhood experiences, grief/loss, life transitions, and postpartum depression. As a mental health professional, I have seen first-hand the plight of the human condition. Throughout the past 20+ years, I have gained incredible experience and insight that have uniquely prepared me for this work. I am a licensed clinical social worker who has served diverse populations in various capacities. Mental wellness care is such a vital component of your whole well-being. I encourage you to start exactly where you are today. I believe that our ability to grow and heal hinges upon our views and beliefs of what we can see. What we cannot see we do not truly know. Therefore, I will provide you with a safe place where you can explore your thoughts and emotions to manifest a shift in your perspective developing the clarity, growth, peace, and healing you seek. I am passionate about this work. My own curative journey has led me to explore a whole-person approach: mind, body, soul. I understand this process intimately and recognize that deep restoration reveals itself and is realized in layers. I am dedicated and compassionate as a trauma-informed professional to hold a non-judgment zone, where you will be patiently supported and spurred on along your own curative journey.
